Appraisal
Located in an historic terrace of mixed Georgian and Victorian houses, this pleasantly intact house forms an integral component within the streetscape. Its historic features include timber sash windows, a well executed doorcase and fine masonry details. Also of note is the building's roof line which is significantly lower than its neighbours and provides a pleasant break in the streetscape's otherwise uniform continuity.
